WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Bandits have released the nine surveyors abducted at the Ilu Abo community in the Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State, Daily Trust has learnt. The victims were working at a site in the community last week Tuesday, when the gun-wielding men abducted them. The kidnappers demanded a N100 million ransom for their release. Their abduction forced some market women to storm the governor’s office on Tuesday, demanding Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s intervention. Confirming their release on Wednesday morning in a chat, Pastor Ajibade Owolanke, the younger brother of one of the victims, explained that the abducted surveyors were released Tuesday night after payment of N20 million ransom.
